#altcoin
My Top #Altcoin Picks for October The portfolio just crossed $180,000 and it's ready for another leg up, but only if I'm positioned right. Here's exactly what I'm holding going into October and the thinking behind each position. The setup #Bitcoin made a new higher high, the signal that we're turning from bear into bull. $ARB (+270% off a divergence that built the whole of 2026) and $SUI breaking out are the confirmation: price moved first, the narrative is only now waking up. That's the backdrop for how I'm positioned. The book $NEAR, Still core, but I see the short-term upside as capped after the run from $1.20–1.80 to $4+. I'm not chasing it here; I'd rather take profit into strength and look to buy back in a correction. It's the bridge asset to the ZEC strength, so I'm not exiting the thesis, just the froth. $EIGEN, Added end of August. The entire $ETH narrative hasn´t shown strength and on top of that, this one is accumulating for more than nine months in an accumulation range. $TAO, Long-held conviction position. One of the strongest narratives in the space is the AI narrative. $NEAR did great, $VVV did great, matter of time until $TAO picks up momentum too. $PLUME, Newest addition. Similar reasoning as why I’m holding $ONDO. The RWA narrative is about to break fiercely. $W (Wormhole), My bet on the $SOL ecosystem that’s now in the corners of ‘pain’. Cash, Deliberately building a cash position. The goal this month isn't to be fully deployed, it's to have dry powder ready for the harsh corrections that always come in runs like this. The strategy from here Compound the returns, lock profit on the way up, and keep enough cash to buy the corrections instead of getting caught in them. Rotation over conviction-holding when the upside caps out. This is my actual portfolio, not a watchlist.

Two years of pain. This week my #altcoin portfolio went back into profit. It hit a new yearly high of $205,000, and we're barely at the start of this bull market, with most altcoins having hardly moved yet. The market threw a correction at us this week: KOSPI selling off, CPI printing hot. But the most important moves I made weren't buys. I scaled out of $NEAR, took profit on $W, accumulated at $0.012–0.014, sold a big chunk at $0.03, and kept building cash. What I cover: – Why the KOSPI drop and the hotter-than-expected CPI triggered the correction, and why that's healthy, not the start of another bear market – Why total #crypto market cap says we're in a new bull market just taking a breather, and the real risk is bear-market PTSD making people sell the dip – How I captured the $W move and why I took profit exactly where I did – Why I'm building a bigger cash position into strength instead of staying fully allocated – Why I still don't hold $LINK, $ETH or $BTC in this book yet, and what would change that – Where my take-profit levels sit on my existing positions, and the new one I added this week

At the bottom, this #altcoin portfolio was down 75%. It touched $30,000 and I kept adding while everyone told me altcoins were dead. On August 1st it stood at $80,000. Today it's above $120,000. That's $40,000 in one month, and we're just getting started in this cycle. But the most important decision I made this month wasn't a buy. I sold one of my #altcoins, and in this video I explain exactly why. What I cover: – The mistake everyone makes right now: chasing the loudest runners. $HYPE and $ZEC already had their move; the game is finding what hasn't moved yet – The setups I've been posting about for weeks: $ARB's building divergences, $TIA, $SEI, and what separates a chart you chase from a chart you accumulate – Why price moves first and the narrative always follows – The full portfolio: where the $40K actually came from, $TAO and $NEAR's strength, and my allocation percentages going forward – Why I trimmed $NEAR after making it my largest position, and the new altcoin I added – The warning that matters at this stage: harsh corrections are coming, and leverage will kill you in them Down 75% taught me more than up 50% ever did. The difference this cycle is a plan for both directions.
